Service Creation
Don’t let the golden path slow you down.
Don’t let the golden path slow you down.
Creating a new service from scratch doesn’t need to hold up the development process or mean you ship slower than your competitors. With your specific standards baked into service templates, you can empower your team to move fast while staying compliant.
Help your team focus more on writing and shipping code and less time on ticket management. Service templates with guardrails and workflow triggers built-in means new services are created the right way, every time.
Not knowing what’s out there and who owns it can keep a DevOps team up at night. With developers creating services from templates in OpsLevel, platform leaders get visibility into new services as soon as they’re created.
Today Service Creation is based on the open-source Cookiecutter project. There are other templating tools or scaffolding generators that we may support in the future. Have one we should know about? Let us know.
No, there is nothing for developers to install or maintain locally. They only need access to OpsLevel. Learn more about the benefits of Service Creation on our blog.
Cookiecutter is entirely language agnostic. Templates can be defined to create new services of any kind.
OpsLevel admins can import any Cookiecutter template into their OpsLevel template library. Template definition happens outside of OpsLevel, before a template is imported. Learn more in our docs.
